Meadowsweet by Sandi Henderson
Tuesday, March 23, 2010
I am loving the Meadowsweet line by Sandi Henderson. The prints are so sweet and fun and the colors are perfect for all your spring projects. No wonder our PrettynPreppy Strawberry Fields Pretty Water Bottle has been our best-seller recently.
Perfect for dresses, bibs, blankets, and nurseries ~ you can find all the fabrics below in yards, half yards, fat quarters, or bundles in our Lola Pink Fabrics shop on Etsy.

Love This ... Fuschia Double Wrap Around Bracelet
Thursday, March 18, 2010
I found this bracelet cruising through Craftgawker and instantly fell in love with the bright pink waxed Irish linen intertwined with sterling silver beads from Be Charmed Designs. The bracelet comes in more colors but the bright fuschia is my favorite.

Kiss Me, I'm Irish ...

Thought I'd jump in with a little St. Patrick's Day project I did today using super cute printable circles stickers from Posh Pixels Design Studio on Etsy. If you haven't already, you've really got to check out her shop. Her stickers for Hershey Kisses are just a tiny sampling of her genius.
She sends you the file in pdf form so all you have to do is print it out ~ too easy! On a side note, she suggested using full sheet size labels but I couldn't find any at our Office Depot. I improvised and got the Avery Internet Shipping Labels which has two big labels per sheet.
After printing them, I used my cool Marvy 3/4" circle punch and punched out all the stickers.
Then it was just a matter of peeling them and putting them on the kisses. I would have had more kisses but well, someone (who shall remain nameless) decided to open the bag a few days ago and well, an open bag of kisses just doesn't last too long in our house. Anyway, the finished kisses are adorable and if any make it through tonight, I'll share them with mom tomorrow. I should probably go ahead and hide them now.
Sorry for the late post but I hope everyone had a happy (and pinch-free) St. Patty's Day!
Spring Forward ...

I am so excited for spring! The warmer weather, flowers, strawberry festival .. all the things that make me smile.
So in honor of spring, I snooped Etsy and found some sunny, fun items. Hope you enjoy!
Love This ... Emerald Library Clutch
Wednesday, March 10, 2010
I am so in love with this emerald green Library Clutch by hardsugar on Etsy. The clutch also comes in canary, steel, and stone but while I would LOVE to have them all, the emerald is my favorite.

Coming Soon ... Cloud9 Fabric's Beyond the Sea
We have been patiently waiting - OK, I lie - We've been impatiently waiting for Cloud9 Fabric's new collection Beyond the Sea to ship and it should ship soon! We are so excited and already have plans for the fabric both personally and for the PrettynPreppy shop.
We are beach people and this collection is perfect! Designer, Michelle Engel Bencsko is fabulous. Her designs are fun and the colors are gorgeous and if you're unfamiliar with Cloud9, their fabric is organic! Take a look ...
This fabric would make great baby items, nurseries, home decor, or accessories. Contact us if you'd like us to reserve some for you. Mom's already called dibs on the first cut of the sand piper fabric!
You can check out their premier line, My Happy Garden at LolaPinkFabrics.
